Cooking Process

1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
2. Place the sweet potato pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd.
3. Lightly coat the sweet potatoes with olive oil and season them with salt and any desired herbs or spices.
4. Cook the sweet potatoes in the air fryer for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
5. Check the doneness by piercing the sweet potatoes with a fork – they should be tender and easily pierced.
